I am clicking on one cell in Excel and it is highlighting 2 or 4 .
 
I have an excel spreadsheet in which, when I click on one cell, instead of
highlighting ONLY the cell I click on, it also highlights the cell adjacent
to it. In other areas of my spreadsheet, it will highlight the cell to the
right as well as the 2 cells directly below to form a 4 cell block. What can
I do to turn this feature off so that it only highlights the cell on which I
click?

Might be worth trying clicking on F8.
